Target search

We specialize in understanding the sustainable food alternatives industry inside and out, identifying the latest trends, and staying at the forefront of innovations in startups and technology. We are in constant dialogue with startups and have a thorough overview of the ecosystem—identifying where it falls short and where it excels. Our team is dedicated to meticulously identifying the most suitable targets for acquisition or partnership based on our extensive knowledge and research.

Operational and technical due diligence

We conduct a thorough review of current operational processes to identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies. This helps us benchmark efficiency, scalability, and adaptability. We also evaluate the target company's technology to find weaknesses, risks, and outdated systems, and assess their impact on efficiency and upgrades. Our approach combines market insights, regulatory scrutiny, and detailed operational and technological assessments. This gives you a complete picture of your potential investment or partnership, ensuring well-informed and strategic decisions. By addressing both operational and technological aspects, we help you reduce risks and seize growth opportunities.

Commercial due diligence

Our commercial due diligence services provide comprehensive insights to ensure you make informed investment decisions. We analyze market supply saturation levels, demand forecasts, and the competitive landscape to identify opportunities and threats, enabling strategic positioning. Our team provides a detailed summary of applicable regulations, identifying any red flags to safeguard your interests.

We also evaluate the historical performance and financial health of the target company, along with a thorough assessment of the business plan and customer landscape. Through our holistic approach, we equip you with the necessary insights to enhance the success of your investment ventures.

Value creation plan

Value creation planning provides a comprehensive roadmap for increasing value, detailing clear strategies for revenue growth, operational enhancements, cost and margin improvements, and best practices such as sustainability. This approach is designed to drive growth, make your business more profitable and efficient, and ultimately boost performance metrics and shareholder value.

Client Feedback
"We asked BGP to prepare a technical due diligence assessment for a potential investment in the cultured meat space. We were very much impressed by the quality of the BGP team, the thorough way of working, the valuable and up-to-date insights they provided and the open way of communication. 

The assessment has helped us in better understanding the challenges of the company in this quickly evolving industry and in structuring a transaction. In many ways BGP outperformed our expectations and we are looking forward to working with them again."
